UN Joint Programme on Gender Equality (JPGE) in Zimbabwe

This project is a component decentralised to the ILO through the Country Office for Zimbabwe (CO-Harare) under the United Nations of the Joint Programme on Gender Equality (JPGE). The JPGE addresses four priorities that were identified through a multi-sectoral consultative process that included government, workers’ and employers’ organizations. The four priorities have been structured around four pillars of: (1) promoting women’s security and combating gender-based violence; (2) women’s political participation and influence; (3) women’s economic empowerment and working conditions; and, (4) national accountability on gender equality and women’s empowerment. Each of the four pillars is being led by different agents as follows: • Pillar I – UNFPA • Pillar II – UNDP • Pillar III – ILO • Pillar IV - UNWOMEN
